Lijuan thought that she was dead and all the pain was gone. However, on the contrary to her expectations from her death; she was instead moved to a dark space. Basically, her soul was moved to a dark space with no time frame. She has been awake for a while now, may be a few days or few weeks, she doesn't remember. But all she is doing is remembering her past life and cursing herself for her stupidity. Now that she is rewinding her life and watching it again, she was a total fool in her entire life.
She didn't see the fake love and care showed by those two people. She was angry at first, then she realised her own mistakes and she slowly understanding her own life. Where she went wrong and how did she lose the people she loved. How everything in her life started to revolve around only two people. She was not even sure if Meirong was really her father's illegitimate child or that was a lie. Did her father had a hand in killing her. Did he also support Meirong to kill her mother? Lijuan had many unresolved questions in her mind but she had no way to get answers for this.
Suddenly, the blank space lit up, there was a table and a chair with multiple books neatly arranged on the table was presented to Lijuan. The table was big enough to keep the books, a space for her to sleep if she wanted to, like it was a space without any books, so thought maybe she can use it to sleep since there was no bed. The books on the table were arranged neatly but she couldn't count the number of books as the books top end could not be seen. May be hundreds or even thousands of books can be there on this table. Lijuan's mind was full of confusion. Not understanding what is happening with her. She was supposed to be dead but here she was in a dark space thinking about her life experience. First, she thought it was kind of punishment given by the heavens to let her understand her mistakes. So, she was waiting for the King of Hell to appear and take her to serve her punishment in Hell. Of Couse, she won't dream about going to heaven after being such an idiot and causing harm to her own people.
Lijuan made up her mind and moved to the table and started checking out the things presented to her. She had no sense of time, and couldn't tell how long she spent in going through the books kept on the table. These books contained lot of knowledge about computers and how the universe was designed. She started to read the books to pass the time and after some time she got interested in the topics and started to read it carefully with full concentration. Time passed on and she kept reading the books one after the other, she felt like she is been in this space like for over a year or so but couldn't move out of the area with the lights on. There was a restriction or a invisible wall that was bounding her to this little space. What amazed her was that she didn't need to eat and rest, she did not feel sleepy or hungry. She can just walk around the table or take a nap on the table or just sit without reading or continue reading. This routine continued until she finished all the books on the table. There were over thousands of books on the table. She kept the books randomly but each time when she closes her eyes the things will be arranged back neatly. She felt this space was magical, but too unreal to believe even after experiencing it multiple times.
When Lijuan was still lost in her thoughts, a mechanical voice rang in her space, "Hi host, I am a space robot assigned to you. I will lead you from here on. My name in Ivy".
